BURLINGTON — The Mount Abraham-Vergennes boys’ lacrosse team outlasted host Burlington on Monday, 11-8, improving to 6-2 in the process. 

Because results are not up to date on the Vermont Principals’ Association website, it was difficult to pin down whether the Eagles were in first or second place in Division III after the road victory over a D-II team, but MAV is clearly well positioned for the playoffs as the team enters the home stretch. The Eagles were set to visit Milton on Wednesday.

On Monday Sawyer Leonard (four goals, assist), Noah Ladeau (three goals), Henry Anderson (two goals, assist), Jonah Howell (goal, three assists) Sawyer Shepard (goal, assist) and Chase Atkins (assist) took care of the offense. Goalie Walker Forand backstopped the win with 11 saves. 

Raven Clark scored half the Seahorse goals, and BHS goalie Cannon Poulin also made 11 saves.
